Description

This should do the trick!

Those twisted hooligans are looking for souls to put in their crazy-juice? Then I say we help 'em out a bit!

Take a swig of this - don't worry, I've diluted it plenty... I'm almost positive that its only effect will be to detect any cultist's essence once you've defeated them.

When you've collected a bunch of them, throw the writhing mass of twisted souls into any of their cauldrons.

Let's see how they like a taste of their own medicine!

Rewards

Located at the SW base of Aldur'thar (under the 'A' on the in-game map). The cauldrons will award a 2 hour buff depending upon into which one you throw the mass.

Cyan / Light-Blue :: +100 attack power
Green :: +75 stam
Dark Blue (Purple):: +60 spell power

Thanks, Giantpie, for the SP number & color suggestion.

  • Cannot ReproduceIcecrown · Level 25-30

After this quest

  • Not a BugIcecrown · Level 25-30

    Alright, friend, time to plant a bug. Relax, it's not a bug exactly, but it'll serve our purposes. In the northern portion of Aldur'thar the cult's void summoners enslave demonic minions.
